4.25 vs. 3.58 GPA (common application)

<p>Yeah...neither are very stellar.</p>

<p>Does it matter which grading scale I choose to report by for the Common App, given that they already have my transcripts?</p>

<p>Your GPA will undoubtedly be normalized to whatever standard the particular schools uses, so it makes no difference what you put down - they’ll convert it to their preference anyway.</p>
